I feel overwhelmed with the mask

The solution. Always carry a thermal water spray or facial mist in your bag. They refresh, soothe and hydrate the skin of the face. Also, since they absorb very quickly, you can put the mask back on instantly. Also try using a lighter moisturizer, those with a gel texture are very cool and ideal for use in summer.
Our Pick: Lancôme Moisturizing Rose Milk Mist.
When it comes to removing your makeup. It is best not to use excess makeup and, if you have sensitive skin, use a mild cleansing gel and facial toner to rebalance hydration.

My face sweats a lot

The solution. Use a purifying mask a couple of times a week. Thoroughly cleaning the skin of dust, sweat, oiliness and makeup is very important so that clogged pores do not cause excessive sweating due to the effort of eliminating toxins. Alternate its use with refreshing hydrating masks to replace the water that is lost in sweat.
Bet on the refreshing Hydraskin Cooling Hydrating Gel Mask from Darphin.
Matifying papers. Use them in times of "crisis" to eliminate glare. They hardly take up space in the toiletry bag and are very effective. If you have oily skin, check out these mattifying and anti-shine creams, serums and other cosmetics.

Excess light tires my eyes

The solution. Apply daily an eye contour rich in vitamin E, which helps reduce bags and dark circles or one with a metallic applicator, which brings freshness. When you notice especially tired and stinging eyes, you can also put on a gel mask for a few minutes. After taking it out of the fridge, wrap it in a cloth so you don't burn yourself. The cold will calm you down and help you decongest the area. Of course, don't leave the house without your sunglasses.
Our favorite: BIO ORGANIC blé noir soin yeux energisant de Nuxe.
Eye drops, a good ally. If you cannot “detach” yourself from your computer or mobile, some anti-UV eye drops, sold at the pharmacy, will do very well for you.

My legs burn and weigh

The solution. The application of a specific cold effect cream for legs, sliding your hands in a gentle upward massage, will allow you to regain comfort. Look for ingredients such as horse chestnut, ivy, red vine or ginkgo biloba (all improve circulation), but to add freshness, make sure it also includes menthol and / or aloe vera.
We chose Payot's Light Legs Spray, € 31
Take a walk and take care of yourself. Control overweight with a good diet, low in salt, and do a minimum of physical exercise a day for 30 to 45 minutes. A walk along the seashore will be great for you.

I notice my skin irritated by the sun

The solution. Always apply an aftersun after showering. If you're wondering if a regular body lotion wouldn't work, consider that the ingredients in aftersun go beyond hydration and are formulated with plant extracts to ease the burning sensation and thoroughly repair sun-damaged skin.
Try Caudalie's Tan Prolonging After-Sun Lotion.
In good shelter. Store it in a place where it is not exposed to direct light so that the formula is not altered.

My feet smoke at the end of the day

The solution. When you get home, soak your feet in a basin of water and salts enriched with essential oil of thyme or mint leaves (sold in health food stores and natural products). In just 10 minutes, you will notice the balsamic and refreshing effect. Take the opportunity later to apply a nourishing cream that restores softness and comfort to your feet.
Our choice is this L'Occitane Shea Intense Foot Balm (€ 26).
Deep exfoliation. Once a week, you can take advantage of your foot bath moment to peel your feet. There are refreshing balms with microgranules that fight dryness of the heels and calluses.

I find it difficult to activate in the morning

The solution. Nothing better than a shower with cold water (or almost) to revitalize yourself. Take advantage of aromatherapy and accompany it with a gel with invigorating ingredients, such as lemon, grapefruit, bergamot, ginger, cucumber or mint. To reinforce the effect, use a body cream from the same line afterwards. You will see how you refresh and clear instantly.
Our favorite is The Body Shop's Special Edition Lemon Shower Gel.
